At the 2026 ePaper Innovation Conference, BAGTAG shared its vision for “Connecting the bag, one ePaper display at a time”, highlighting how ePaper technology can serve as a critical building block for the digitalization of baggage operations.
A color ePaper locator called πTag is currently being crowdfunded on Kickstarter. It can help users find important items such as keys or wallets. The πTag smart tag is compatible with both iPhones and Android phones.

Though trackers from the likes of Apple and Tile are undoubtedly useful, they're a bit of a one-trick pony. The PhotoTag – which is currently raising production funds on Kickstarter – not only helps you to locate gear that's wandered off, but can also brighten up a travel bag with a happy snap or colorful art and serve as an address label too.
